They told him he would not live past 20. Doctors said his body would fail. Pain was constant. Bullying shaped his self-worth. Addiction became an escape. Suicide felt like an option.

David W Ebel lived with an expiration date and somehow survived it. In this episode of W.A.R. We’re All Recovering, host Stryker sits down with David W Ebel to talk about chronic pain, addiction, depression, faith, discipline, family, and what it truly means to keep going when life already feels over.

This is not a conversation about religion versus science. It is a conversation about survival, identity, responsibility, and rebuilding a life from the inside out.

We talk breakdown, identity, faith, discipline, purpose, and what it really looks like to start over when the old version of you is no longer working. If you are rebuilding, recovering, or trying to find your way back to yourself, this episode will meet you where you are and walk with you forward. It is raw. It is honest. It is recovery in real time. It’s WAR. Each One Reach One. We are all recovering.

In this Christmas Special episode of W A R We’re All Recovering, host Stryker sits down with Omar Ritter, a decorated United States Army combat veteran, Bronze Star recipient, West Point graduate, Columbia MBA, author, motivational speaker, mental health advocate, and fractional CFO.

Omar shares his journey from West Point to combat in Iraq and Kosovo, the struggle with PTSD and trauma, the transition into leadership roles on Wall Street, and how discipline and recovery shaped his life and purpose. We dive deep into identity, vulnerability, silence, healing, leadership, resilience, and what it takes to come back stronger when life feels overwhelming.

If you are a veteran, caregiver, leader, or anyone quietly fighting your own war, this conversation will inspire you to rethink strength, embrace your recovery, and build something real.

It is W A R
